Wow

While I like your column in general, your recent one bordered on pure stupidity. Maybe if you made some sort of argument about PC spyware/virus probabilities and the costs associated with repairing such items I might have possibly agreed with your title.

You, however, present an argument based on a tiny resale market for PC/Macs and intend to extrapolate that to the industry as a whole. I would have laughed if you weren't being paid to write such drivel.

Lastly, your smarmy comment about the most recent Windows operating system is utterly pointless and irrelevant to your headline topic. I dislike Micro$oft as much as the next guy, and I agree that the most recent OS is atrocious, but I'd still appreciate it if you stayed focused.

Good luck next time.
